Every year, the teacher-led nonprofit raises funds to serve the students and families of Boone CSD, Sacred Heart, and Trinity Lutheran Schools. These funds provide one-time assistance in the face of urgent need or emergencies. Your kind donation will benefit individuals right here in our community.
This year’s Hope Festival will take place from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. in the Boone High School Commons. Let’s see if we can top last year’s donations!

Chronic absenteeism increases as students get older. More than 14 percent of middle school students are reported as chronically absent. That number climbs to over 20 percent once they get to high school.
Boone CSD calls on parents, guardians, and family members to encourage regular attendance. If school is in session, students should be in school.

Mentorship makes a huge difference in school attendance. Studies show that chronically absent students who participate in a mentorship program are more likely to get back on track and maintain a solid attendance record.
If your student is struggling, we encourage you to explore mentorship opportunities. Speak with a school counselor to learn more.
